BACKGROUND

Electronics can be divided into a simple hierarchy consisting of devices such as integrated circuit (IC) chips, packages, printed circuit boards (PCB), and a system. The package is the interface between an electronic device, such as a computer chip, and a PCB. Devices are made from semiconductor materials such as silicon. Integrated circuits are assembled into a package such as a quad flat pack (QFP), pin grid array (PGA), or ball grid array (BGA), using wire bonding (WB), tape automated bonding (TAB), or flip chip (FC) bumping assembly techniques. The packaged device is then attached either directly to a printed wiring board or to another type of substrate, which is defined as the second level of packaging.

Ball grid array (BGA) packaging technology generally is an advanced semiconductor packaging technology, which is characterized in that a semiconductor chip is mounted on a front surface of a substrate, and a plurality of conductive elements such as solder balls are arranged in a matrix array, customarily referred to as ball grid array, on a back surface of the substrate. The ball grid array allows the semiconductor package to be bonded and electrically connected to an external PCB or other electronic devices. The BGA package may be employed in a memory such as Dynamic Random Access Memory and others.

A basic flip-chip (FC) packaging technology comprises an IC, an interconnect system, and a substrate. A function chip is connected to the substrate with a plurality of solder bumps, wherein the solder bumps form a metallurgical interconnection between the chip and the substrate. The function chip, the solder bump, and the substrate form a flip-chip package. Further, a plurality of balls form a ball grid array (BGA).

Wire bonding can be used to make the electrical connections from chip components such as chip resistors or chip capacitors to a substrate. Two function chips are stacked on top of a plurality of substrate layers. The chips are connected to the substrate by a plurality of bonding gold wires. Other form of wires such as aluminum wire can be used, too. The function chips, the gold wire, and the substrate form a wire bonding (WB) package.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF ILLUSTRATIVE EMBODIMENTS

Reference will now be made in detail to embodiments illustrated in the accompanying drawings. Wherever possible, the same reference numbers are used in the drawings and the description to refer to the same or like parts. In the drawings, the shape and thickness may be exaggerated for clarity and convenience. This description will be directed in particular to elements forming part of, or cooperating more directly with, methods and apparatus in accordance with the present disclosure. It is to be understood that elements not specifically shown or described may take various forms well known to those skilled in the art. Many alternatives and modifications will be apparent to those skilled in the art, once informed by the present disclosure.

Reference throughout this specification to “one embodiment” or “an embodiment” means that a particular feature, structure, or characteristic described in connection with the embodiment is included in at least one embodiment. Thus, the appearances of the phrases “in one embodiment” or “in an embodiment” in various places throughout this specification are not necessarily all referring to the same embodiment. Furthermore, the particular features, structures, or characteristics may be combined in any suitable manner in one or more embodiments. It should be appreciated that the following figures are not drawn to scale; rather, these figures are merely intended for illustration.

Embodiments will be described with respect to a specific context, namely an alignment and connector shape control component for a package-on-package (POP) structure, a flip-chip structure, a surface mount structure, a three-dimensional integrated circuit (3DIC) package, a two-and-a-half integrated circuit (2.5DIC) package, or the like. Other embodiments may also be applied, however, to other structures in which alignment and connector shape control are important.

With reference now to FIG. 1, there is shown a semiconductor device 10 according to an embodiment. The semiconductor device 10 may include a bottom package 200, a top package 300 attached to the bottom package 200 with a second set of conductive joints 210, and the bottom package 200 attached to a first substrate 100 with a first set of conductive joints 110. In an embodiment, the semiconductor device may have a total thickness from about 0.9 mm to about 1.6 mm.

The top package 300 may comprise one or more stacked dies, such as the dies 350, coupled to a third substrate 302. In the illustrated embodiment, the dies 350 are coupled to the third substrate 302 by wire bonds 310, although other connections may be used, such as contact bumps.

The dies 350 may be encapsulated in a molding compound 340 on a top surface of the third substrate 302. The molding compound 340 may comprise a polymer, a molding underfill, the like, or a combination thereof. The molding compound 340 may be formed by injecting the molding compound 340 to surround the dies 350 and the wire bonds 310. In other embodiments, the top package 300 and the bottom package 200 may be encapsulated in a molding compound on a top surface of the first substrate 100.

The top package 300 may be coupled to the bottom package by a plurality of bond pads 330 on the bottom surface of the third substrate 302, the conductive joints 210, and bond pads 230 on the top surface of the second substrate 202.

The bottom package 200 may comprise one or more dies 400 attached to the top surface and/or bottom surface of the second substrate 202 by conductive connectors 410, a second set of alignment components 220 on the second substrate 202 laterally adjacent the second set of conductive joints 210, a fourth set of alignment components 420 on the second substrate 202 laterally adjacent the conductive connectors 410, and an underfill 440 between the second substrate 202 and the die 400.

The second set of alignment components 220 may be used to align the conductive joints 210 on the top package 300 with the bond pads 230 on the second substrate 202 during the mounting of the top package 300 to the bottom package 200. The alignment components 220 may have a convex or rounded top surface. The alignment components 220 may cause the conductive joints 210 to self-align with the bond pads 230 (see FIGS. 5A and 5B) as discussed further below. The alignment components 220 may comprise a photoresist, an epoxy, a silicone, for example, polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS), or other organic polymer such as polyethylene glycol (PEG), the like, or a combination thereof. The alignment components 220 may be deposited in bulk and shaped by a reflow process, etching, compression molding, the like, or a combination thereof.

The die 400 may comprise an integrated circuit or chip and may be mounted to a top surface and/or bottom surface of the second substrate 202 by way of conductive connectors 410. In the illustrated embodiment, the die 400 may be mounted to the second substrate 202 wherein the conductive connectors 410 are contact bumps that are in contact with bond pads 430 on the second substrate 202, which in turn are electrically connected to the top package 300 and/or the first substrate 100. In another embodiment the die 400 may be mounted to the second substrate 202 using a technique such as surface mounting, to connect the pins of the die 400 to an array of die bond pads on second substrate 202.

The fourth set of alignment components 420 may be used to align the conductive connectors 410 on the die 400 with the bond pads 430 during the mounting of the die 400. The fourth set of alignment components 420 may have a rounded or curved top surface and may be formed of similar materials and processes as the second set of alignment components 220 as described above. Although the second and third set of alignment components 220 and 420 need not be the same materials or formed by the same processes.

The bottom package 200 may be coupled to a first substrate 100 by a plurality of bond pads 230 on the bottom surface of the second substrate 202, the conductive connectors 110, bond pads (not shown) on the top surface of the first substrate 100, and a first set of alignment components 120 on the top surface of the first substrate 100.

The first substrate 100 may have bond pads (not shown) on the top surface of the first substrate 100. In an embodiment, the first substrate 100 may be a silicon substrate, a silicon or glass interposer, a PCB, an organic laminate substrate, or the like. The first substrate 100 may include electronic components and elements formed thereon in some embodiments, or alternatively, the first substrate 100 may be free of electronic components and elements.

The first set of alignment components 120 may be used to align the conductive connectors 110 on second substrate 202 with the bond pads (not shown) on the first substrate 100 during the mounting of the bottom package 200 to the first substrate 100. In another embodiment where there are no bond pads on the first substrate 100 to couple the conductive connectors 110 to, the alignment components 120 may be used to align the bottom package 200 to a specific location on the first substrate 100. The first set of alignment components 120 may have a rounded or curved top surface and may be formed of similar materials and processes as the second set of alignment components 220 as described above. Although the first, second, and third set of alignment components 120, 220, and 420 need not be the same materials or formed by the same processes.

It has been found that embodiments such as those discussed above may reduce the need for tools, jigs, stencils, and the like during the assembly process for a semiconductor device. The self-alignment afforded by the alignment components may reduce the assembly cost and steps need to ensure the components of the semiconductor device are aligned. Further, the alignment components may help to reduce a bridge between conductive connectors during a reflow process as the alignment component may be between the conductive connectors.

FIG. 2 illustrates a semiconductor device 12 according to another embodiment. In this embodiment, the semiconductor device 12 includes the second set of alignment components 220 on a top surface of the second substrate 202 and a third set of alignment components 320 on a bottom surface of the third substrate 302, wherein the alignment components 320 are over and contacting the alignment components 220. Although not shown in FIG. 2, this embodiment may also include the first set of alignment components 120 and the fourth set of alignment components 420 (see FIG. 1). The height 250 between the second substrate 202 and the third substrate 302 may be precisely controlled by the height of the second set of alignment components 220 and the third set of alignment components 320. In an embodiment, the height 250 may be substantially equal to the height at an apex of the second set of alignment components 220 plus the height at an apex of the third set of alignment components 320.

The alignment components 220 and 320 may have a rounded or curved top surface and may be formed of similar materials and processes as the second set of alignment components 220 as described above. Although the first, second, and third set of alignment components 120, 220, and 320 need not be the same materials or formed by the same processes.

By having alignment components on a top surface of a bottom package and also on a bottom surface of a top package, the gap (see height 250) between the packages may be better controlled and the reliability of the shape of the conductive connector between the packages may be improved.

FIG. 3 illustrates a flow diagram of a method 500 for manufacturing a semiconductor device in accordance with an embodiment. While method 500 is illustrated and described below as a series of acts or events, it will be appreciated that the illustrated ordering of such acts or events are not to be limited to a particular embodiment. For example, some acts may occur in different orders and/or concurrently with other acts or events apart from those illustrated and/or described herein. In addition, not all illustrated acts may be required to implement one or more aspects or embodiments of the description herein. Further, one or more of the acts depicted herein may be carried out in one or more separate acts and/or phases.

At step 502, a bond pad 22 is formed on a first substrate 20. Step 502 is illustrated in FIG. 4A as described below.

With reference now to FIG. 4A, there is shown a first substrate 20 with a bond pad 22 on a top surface of the first substrate 20, and alignment components 26 adjacent the bond pad 22 and on the top surface of the first substrate 20. In an embodiment, the first substrate 20 may be a silicon substrate, a silicon or glass interposer, a printed circuit board (PCB), an organic laminate substrate, or the like. The first substrate 20 may include electronic components and elements formed thereon in some embodiments, or alternatively, the first substrate 20 may be free of electronic components and elements.

The first substrate 20 may include metallization layers (not shown). The metallization layers may comprise through substrate vias (TSVs) to connect devices and components, e.g., dies, chips, packages, or the like, above and below the first substrate 20 to form functional circuitry. The metallization layers may be formed of alternating layers of dielectric (e.g., low-k dielectric material) and conductive material (e.g., copper) and may be formed through any suitable process (such as deposition, damascene, dual damascene, etc.). The metallization and dielectric layers may include metal lines and vias to electrically couple the devices and components. Only a portion of the first substrate 20 is illustrated in the figures, as this is sufficient to fully describe the illustrative embodiments.

The bond pads 22 may comprise a conductive material such as aluminum, copper, gold, nickel, the like, or a combination thereof. In some embodiments, an organic solderability preservative (OSP) may be applied to the bond pads 22. In other embodiments, the bond pads 22 may be formed using an electroless nickel-electroless palladium-immersion gold technique (ENEPIG).

At step 504, alignment material 24 may be deposited and patterned on the top surface of the first substrate. Step 504 is illustrated in FIG. 4A as described below.

The alignment material 24 may comprise a photoresist, an epoxy, a silicone, for example, PDMS, or other organic polymer such as PEG, the like, or a combination thereof. The alignment material 24 may be deposited in bulk or other suitable methods. The alignment material 24 may be patterned to be adjacent the bond pad 22 by etching or other suitable methods. In an embodiment, the alignment material 24 may have a top surface that is substantially parallel to a major surface of the first substrate 20.

At step 506, alignment components 26 are formed from the alignment material 24. Step 506 is illustrated in FIG. 4B as described below.

The alignments components 26 may be shaped to have rounded or curved top surfaces. In an embodiment, the alignment components 26 may be shaped by performing a reflow process on the alignment material at a temperature from about 160° C. to about 200° C. for about 8 min. to about 12 min. In another embodiment, the alignment components 26 may be shaped by etching, molding (see FIGS. 7A through 7C discussed below), or other suitable methods. The convex top surfaces 26A of the alignment components 26 may guide the conductive connectors 32 (see FIGS. 5A and 5B) in a direction toward the bond pads 22 as discussed below. An edge of the alignment component 26 may be aligned with an edge of the bond pad 22, the alignment component 26 may partially overlap the bond pad 22, or the alignment component 26 may be laterally spaced from the bond pad 22.

At step 508, conductive connectors 32 are formed on a second substrate 30. At step 510, the first substrate 20 and the second substrate 30 are aligned. Steps 508 and 510 are illustrated in FIG. 5A as described below.

FIG. 5A illustrates the first substrate 20 having two bond pads 22 with three alignment components 26 adjacent the bond pads 22. One of the alignment components 26 is between the bond pads 22 while the other two alignment components are adjacent the outer edges of the bond pads 22. Each conductive connector 32 having a center line 32C orthogonal to a top surface of the second substrate 30 and through a center of the conductive connector 32 and each bond pad 22 having a center line 22C orthogonal to a top surface of the first substrate 20 and through a center of the bond pad 22. The conductive connectors 32 may be solder balls, microbumps, controlled collapse chip connection (C4) bumps, or the like and may comprise a material such as tin, silver, lead-free tin, copper, the like, or a combination thereof.

After the conductive connectors 32 are formed on the second substrate, the second substrate 30 may be aligned with the first substrate 20 to allow the substrates to be bonded together. In an embodiment, the second substrate 30 may be lowered towards the first substrate 20 until the conductive connectors 32 contact the alignment components 26. The convex top surface of the alignment component 26 and the convex top surface of the conductive connector 32 allow the center line 32C of the conductive connector 32 to self-align towards the center line 22C of the bond pad 22 as illustrated in FIG. 5B.

At step 512, the first substrate 20 is bonded to the second substrate 30. Step 512 is illustrated in FIG. 5B as described below.

FIG. 5B illustrates the conductive connectors 32 after they have been aligned with the bond pads 22. The conductive connectors 32 may then be bonded to the bond pads 22 through, for example, a reflow process. The bonding will electrically and physically couple the conductive connectors 32 with the bond pads 22. Although FIGS. 4A through 5B illustrate an alignment component 26 on two sides of each bond pad 22, there may be more alignment components 26 adjacent each bond pad 22, for example in a checkerboard pattern, wherein each bond pad 22 may be surrounded by four alignment components 26 on four sides of the bond pad 22 (see, e.g., FIG. 5C). In some embodiments, the four alignment components 26 on four sides of the bond pads 22 have the same structure. In some embodiments, as illustrated in FIG. 2, there may be alignment components on both the first substrate 20 and the second substrate 30.

FIG. 6 illustrates a semiconductor device 14 according to another embodiment. In this embodiment, the semiconductor device 14 includes a second set of concave alignment components 222 on a top surface of the second substrate 202 and the third set of alignment components 320 on a bottom surface of the third substrate 302, wherein the alignment components 320 have a convex or rounded shape and are over and contacting the concave alignment components 222. Although not shown in FIG. 6, this embodiment may also include the first set of alignment components 120 and the fourth set of alignment components 420 (see FIG. 1). The height 250 between the second substrate 202 and the third substrate 302 may be precisely controlled by the height of the second set of concave alignment components 222 and the third set of alignment components 320. In an embodiment, the height 250 may be substantially equal to the height at a nadir of the concave surface of the second set of concave alignment components 222 plus the height at an apex of the third set of alignment components 320.

By having concave alignment components on a top surface of a bottom package and convex or rounded alignment components on a bottom surface of a top package, the gap (see height 250) between the packages may be controlled and the top and bottom packages may also be self-aligned. The self-alignment afforded by this embodiment may reduce the assembly cost and steps need to ensure the components of the semiconductor device are aligned while also allowing for more control and potentially a larger height 250 between the top and bottom packages. Further, the alignment components may help to reduce a bridge between conductive connectors during a reflow process as the alignment component is between the conductive connectors.

FIGS. 7A through 7C illustrate a method of forming concave alignment components according to an embodiment. The first substrate 20 and alignment material 24 has been previously described in reference to FIG. 4A, and thus will not be repeated herein. The first substrate 20 may further include one or more bond pads adjacent the alignment material 24 (see FIG. 4A). A molding base 40 with molding forms 42 is over the first substrate 20 and the alignment material 24. The molding base 40 and the molding forms 42 may comprise a metal or any material suitable for the pressure and temperature of the molding process. In an embodiment, the molding forms 42 may have convex or rounded surfaces as shown in FIG. 7A. In another embodiment, the molding forms 42 may have surfaces that are triangular, square, other polygonal shapes, or the like.

FIG. 7B illustrates the molding process to form concave alignment components 28. The alignments material 24 may be shaped to have concave top surfaces. In an embodiment, the alignment material 24 may be shaped by performing a reflow process on the alignment material 24 while the molding forms 42 are lowered to contact and shape the alignment material 24. The convex surfaces of the molding forms 42 are transferred to the top surface of the alignment components 28 to cause the alignment components 28 to have concave top surfaces 28A. The reflow process may be performed at a temperature from about 160° C. to about 200° C. for about 8 min. to about 12 min. In another embodiment, the concave alignment components 28 may be shaped by etching, or other suitable methods. The concave top surfaces 28A of the alignment components 28 may guide the alignment components 44 (see FIGS. 8A and 8B) in a direction toward the center of the concave alignment components 28 as discussed below. An edge of the concave alignment component 28 may be aligned with an edge of the adjacent bond pad (not shown), the concave alignment component 28 may partially overlap the adjacent bond pad, or the concave alignment component 28 may be laterally spaced from the adjacent bond pad.

FIG. 7C illustrates the concave alignment components 28 after the molding forms 42 have been removed. The top surfaces of the concave alignment components 28 have concave top surfaces as transferred from the rounded surface of the molding forms 42.

FIGS. 8A and 8B illustrate the alignment of the first substrate 20 with the second substrate 30. In this embodiment, a center line 44C of convex alignment components 44 on the second substrate 30 are substantially aligned with a center 28C of the concave alignment components 28 on the first substrate (see FIG. 8B). The alignment of the second substrate 30 with the first substrate 20 may allow the substrates to be bonded together. In an embodiment, the second substrate 30 may be lowered towards the first substrate 20 until the convex alignment components 44 contact the concave alignment components 28. The convex top surface of the convex alignment components 44 and the concave top surface of the concave alignment components 28 allow the center 44C of the convex alignment components 44 to self-align towards the center of the concave alignment components 28C. In an embodiment, an apex of the convex top surface of the convex alignment component 44 is aligned with and contacting a nadir of the concave top surface of the concave alignment component 28. By having the alignment components 44 and 28 self-align, connectors and bond pads on the first and second substrates 20 and 30 may also be self-aligned, e.g., conductive joints 210 and bond pads 230 of FIG. 6.

An embodiment is a semiconductor device comprising a first bond pad on a first substrate, the first bond pad having a first center line through a center of the first bond pad and orthogonal to a top surface of the first substrate, and a first conductive connector on a second substrate, the first conductive connector having a second center line through a center of the first conductive connector and orthogonal to a top surface of the second substrate, the second substrate over the first substrate with the top surface of the first substrate facing the top surface of the second substrate.

The method further comprises aligning the first substrate to the second substrate with the alignment component, the alignment component aligning the first conductive connector to the first bond pad, and bonding the first substrate to the second substrate, the first bond pad being bonded to the first conductive connector.
